ADAT I/O (TOSLINK), 1 to 3. The ADAT1 I/O can also be used for optical
S/P-DIF, if this mode is selected in the Settings dialog.
S/P-DIF I/O coaxial (phono).
Word clock I/O (BNC).
ADAT Sync In (D-sub 9-pin).
The S/P-DIF inputs are selected via the Settings dialog (started by click-
ing on the Nuendo symbol in the system tray). The Audiolink 96 system
accepts the commonly used digital audio formats, S/P-DIF as well as
AES/EBU. Channel status and copy protection are ignored.
In S/P-DIF mode, identical signals are available at both the optical and
the coaxial outputs. An obvious use for this would be simply connect-
ing two devices, i.e. using the Audiolink 96 as a splitter (distribution 1
on 2).
To receive signals in AES/EBU format,
an adapter cable is required. Pins 2
and 3 of an XLR plug are connected
individually to the two pins of a
phono plug. The cable shielding is
only connected to pin 1 of the XLR - not to the phono plug.
The ground-free design using transformers for digital inputs and out-
puts enables trouble-free connection even to AES/EBU devices, and
perfect hum rejection.
8.2 Windows MME Playback
The Audiolink 96 system automatically outputs digital audio data using
the wave file's parameters in case they are supported. Otherwise an er-
ror message appears.
In the audio application being used, Audiolink 96 must be selected as
output device. This can often be found in the Options, Preferences or
Settings menus under Playback Device, Audio Devices, Audio etc. We
recommend using 24-bit resolution for playback, to make full use of the
Audiolink 96’s potential.
